Talisker Announces Further High Grade Results from Bralorne East and the Pioneer Blocks

Rhea-AI Summary

Talisker Resources Ltd. announced high-grade gold results from its Bralorne Gold Project, reporting significant drill intercepts including 22.41 g/t Au over 1.50 metres in the 77 vein and 10.39 g/t Au over 2.70 metres in the 51BFW vein.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / February 8, 2022 / Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker" or the "Company") (TSX:TSK)(OTCQX:TSKFF) is pleased to announce further high grade results from multiple drill holes highlighted by 22.41 g/t Au over 1.50 metres (SB-2021-094) and 10.39 g/t Au over 2.70 metres (SB-2021-092) on the 77 and 51BFW veins respectively at its 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold Project.

Key Points:

• The holes in this release are located within the Bralorne East and Pioneer blocks. Principal targets were the 77, 51BFW and Main veins.
• Hole SB-2021-094 intercepted the 77 vein close to surface which graded 22.41 g/t Au over 1.50 metres increasing the total number of intercepts on the 77 vein to 47.
• Hole SB-2021-099 and 099A both intersected high grade gold on the Main vein highlighted by 14.57 g/t Au over 1.45 metres within 4.60 g/t Au over 5.10 metres and 12.34 g/t Au over 1.15 metres respectively increasing total intercepts on the Main vein to 30.
• SB-2021-092 intersected the 51BFW vein highlighted by 10.39 g/t Au over 2.70 metres increasing the total intercepts on the 51BFW vein to 18.
• Talisker drilling to date at the Bralorne Gold Project has produced 278 vein intersections with a combined weighted average diluted grade of 8.35 g/t over an average intersection length of 1.87 metres.

Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker commented, "As we receive the final assays from the 2021 resource drill campaign, we continue to deliver high grade intersects that are consistent with what we expect from historical averages. It is this consistency and grade continuity that sets the Bralorne Gold Project apart."

Seven diamond drills are now operating at the Bralorne Gold Project. A total of 111,017 metres (218 holes) has been drilled since Talisker initiated drilling at the Bralorne Gold Project in February 2020. Currently there are 2,578 samples at the assay laboratory which are expected to be received by the Company shortly.

Sample Preparation and QAQC

Drill core at the Bralorne Gold Project is drilled in HQ to NQ size ranges (63.5mm and 47.6mm respectively). Drill core samples are minimum 50 cm and maximum 160 cm long along the core axis. Samples are focused on an interval of interest such as a vein or zone of mineralization. Shoulder samples bracket the interval of interest such that a total sampled core length of not less than 3m both above and below the interval of interest must be assigned. Sample QAQC measures of unmarked certified reference materials (CRMs), blanks, and duplicates are inserted into the sample sequence and make up 9% of the samples submitted to the lab for holes reported in this release. Sample preparation and analyses is carried out by ALS Global in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and SGS Canada in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. Drill core sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (ALS code PREP-31 / SGS code PRP89). Gold in diamond drill core is analysed by fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) of a 50g sample (ALS code Au-AA26 / SGS code GO_FAA50V10), while multi-element chemistry is analysed by 4- Acid digestion of a 0.25 g sample split with detection by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) for 48 elements (Ag, Al, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Y, Zn, Zr). Gold assay technique (ALS code Au-AA26 / SGS code FAA50V10) has an upper detection limit of 100 ppm. Any sample that produces an over-limit gold value via the gold assay technique is sent for gravimetric finish (ALS method Au-GRA22 / SGS method GO_FAG50V) which has an upper detection limit of 1,000 ppm Au. Samples where visible gold was observed are sent directly to screen metallics analysis and all samples that fire assay above 1 ppm Au are re-analysed with method (ALS code Au-SCR24 / SGS code - 6 - GO_FAS50M) which employs a 1kg pulp screened to 100 microns with assay of the entire oversize fraction and duplicate 50g assays on the undersize fraction. Where possible all samples initially sent to screen metallics processing will also be re-run through the fire assay with gravimetric finish provided there is enough material left for further processing
